The prices, off street parking however the entrance , inside carpet and floor is so dirty I have to wonder if inspectors don’t visit this property for person spending their money supporting this business place I believe we need to get satisfaction. It’s a nice location but need some major repairs on the inside . The management need to show some gratitude to persons booking and make some well needed repairs to this property .

They finally “cleaned” the kitchen floor, after one previous attempt. I was told by the day guy that, “we’re not known for our cleanliness.”

The first room they gave me has hair on the bed and in the bathroom. After changing room, I still found hair in the bathroom. The bathroom floors were broke with pieces of tiles crumbling. Ran out of toilet paper so had to call the front desk. And the room was cold. The building doors were mostly open to cold air came in my room and the heat didn’t seem to be turned or do anything. Not returning to this place.

The front desk is friendly and helpful. I like the location and parking. The place needs renovation. Our room door cannot close well, when we used the lock, we couldn’t open the door. We ended up calling the management for help.

The floor was moving when I walked into the room. And the building of the Farrington Inn where I stayed was different from the map. But overall, it was good.
